  • Outsourcing responsibilities to traditional engineering, architectural, and facilities firms as well as program and project management firms
  • Comparing traditional design firms and specialty firms - in terms of finding and keeping capable staffs, project scope management, fee and time pressures, and a myriad of other issues
  • Communicating effectively within this highly fragmented, specialized, and complex arena
    This edition comprehensively outlines the fundamental means to effectively manage and control a project's scope, schedule, and budget.
